Louis TherouxLouis Theroux is back! Gotta love him, can’t hate on the man!

Louis visited what is arguably thé most hated family in the States. Faut le faire, and indeed, he done did it. The Westboro Baptist Church is known for their extreme hate against homosexuals - using slogans such as: “Fags eat poop”. They’ve been demonstrating on funerals of America’s fallen Iraq soldiers, yelling it is all a punishment of God, etcetera etcetera…

Louis lived with these crazy nutters for three weeks. The result is to be seen on the tube, check it out:

Metro versus Pre-Metro versus Tram

emich.be metro madouEmich keeps on keeping on! This time around he explains us the difference between the metro and the so-called pre-metro.

Call me a freak but I’m utterly thankfull for that because this maybe will shut some big mouths up in “a town” where trams doing their thing in the underground are referrred to as “the metro”, while obviously it’s merely a tram.

metro versus pre-metro

Sorry boys, sorry girls, in Belgium we have premetro’s in Antwerp, Charleroi and Brussels I haven’t found anything about any other metro than the Brussels one.

And well waddayaknow, here’s Manneken Pics, lovely blog of an English expat living in the city, talking metro’s from time to time too. Volare, baby, Volare!
